Peony 'Angel Cheeks'

Peony ‘Angel Cheeks’ is a lactiflora-group herbaceous perennial introduced by Carl G. Klehm in 1970. It forms an upright, bushy clump of divided dark green leaves, tinged red in spring, and bears fragrant, saucer-shaped flowers in pale pink to cream with a tufted center. The late-spring and early-summer blooms suit cottage gardens, mixed borders, sheltered beds, and cut-flower plantings. Grow it in full sun or partial shade in fertile, humus-rich soil that stays moist while draining freely. The American Peony Society records this cultivar’s origin and awards, while the RHS profile supplies its planting and care details.

Cut back the foliage in autumn when it dies down, and keep the root area moist but well drained through the growing season.
